NBC News has obtained a “heat map” of ISIS expansion around the world dated August 2016. The map, which was prepared by the National Counterterrorism Center, shows the group is now operating in three times as many countries as it was two years ago:

U.S. State Department documents indicated that in 2014, when the U.S. military began its campaign to destroy the extremists, there were only seven nations in which the fledgling state was operating…

The current briefing map shows 18 countries where ISIS is fully operational. The map also displays a new category — “aspiring branches” — and lists six countries where they’re taking root: Egypt, Indonesia, Mali, the Philippines, Somalia and Bangladesh.

As for the MEC's assertion that ISIS is not Islamic, the six countries listed above aren't Buddhist or Amish.
